Tyrese Haliburton and the Indiana Pacers became the first team to win on the road in the 2024 NBA Playoffs. This was thanks to an exciting 125-108 win against the Milwaukee Bucks, tying the game to one apiece. After the game, Haliburton shared his sentiment about the electric atmosphere he will experience when he heads back to his home turf after the game.

Furthermore, he took a shot at the Bucks’ fans for the dull atmosphere he experienced in the first two games he played there. 

I'm expecting it to be unbelievable. No doubt about that. We've had regular season crowds better than what we've played in the last two games. We expect a great crowd. A lot of people are excited about what's to come in the series... Just the energy in the city right now with everything that's going on, but especially with us.

Fans of the Indiana Pacers haven’t experienced the playoffs for a whopping five years now. The last one they participated in was in 2020, the COVID year, held in the Bubble in Orlando. However, April 2019 was the last time the Gainbridge Fieldhouse witnessed a playoff game.

Furthermore, the fans would hope their thunderous cheers would be enough to ginger their team to sweep away the Bucks. The team is relying on sharpshooter Damian Lillard to hold on in the absence of injured superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo. Tyrese Haliburton has a good record against the Bucks, averaging 20 points, 10 assists, and 5.5 rebounds in the last five games played against them.

The incident occurred on Sunday when the Bucks started their series with the Indiana Pacers. Although security was informed of the situation, the fan wasn’t ejected from the game.

The Bucks won that round 109-94, and Haliburton had a dull game, scoring nine points, seven rebounds, and eight assists. Hopefully, the ugly incident doesn’t occur when the Pacers welcome the visiting Bucks to their turf.
